Importing the wrong type of labels file can lead to a non-functional app
I was debugging the label loading issue and was trying to load differently formatted files to see what would work. The next time I ran treeview, opening a file would result in a blank window and reset preferences would not open up a confirm dialog. When this happens, there doesn't appear to be a way to make anything work, even upon restart of the app.
I know that the first alpha release is intended to have the label load feature commented out, but since this is the only issue available for me to claim, I thought I would work on it. Also, I did not assign this issue to the first release, but I am giving it a blocker priority due to the severity of the state the app can get into.

Since the label loading interface has been disabled, this issue is no longer pressing.

I made this issue separate from #141, because maybe this could happen even if we fix the loading and someone loads an incorrect file.
I discovered that whatever you put in the first row is what appears in one of the label selection boxes, though nothing in the file below that ever gets to the display. Clicking the new labels empties the labels in the display.
